THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE. 



[Nov. 10, 1855. 





BERNARD SAUNDERS, Nurseryman and Florist, 

 Ceesarean Nurseries, Jersey, respectfully informs Amateurs 

 and rlorists that he has a good Stock of Yellow and White- 

 ground PICOTEES to offer for sale this season, at 2s. 6d. per 

 pair, orders for which will be thankfully rer.-ved and promptly 

 executed. Also a small quantity of well ripened Seed of the 

 PHORMIUM TENAX or NEW ZEALAND FLAX, at 2s. 6d. 

 per packet of 60 Seeds. 



ARKER'S RAGLAN POTATO —This Seedling 



Potato has been raised by Mr. Benjamin Parker, of 

 Accii: gton, Lancashire, Gardener, and is distinguished by the 

 name of the late Lord Raglan, as indicative of its sterling worth. 

 Its shape is somewhat oblong, but its body of almost equal depth 

 on every side. It has a skin of even thickness, not smooth, but 

 like that of a fine Orange; is free from blotches, and can be 

 peeled at one strip or cutting. There need be no waste in dressing 

 this Potato for the table ; besides which saving, its regular form 

 and pure substance must soon make it welcome in every family. 

 From an analysis by John Lightfoot, jun., Accrington, it appears 

 to contain one sixth more farina than the old Fluke Potato, or 

 rather above 15 per cent, more of that essential ingredient. Its 

 chief virtue, however, is that of being ripe in July. > that it can 

 thus be gathered before the usual period of the Potato blight. 

 The Potato is quite sound, not an instance of decay having 

 hitherto occurred. Mr. Parker has devoted six years to the pro- 

 duction of this Seedling Potato, which is pronounced by many 

 agriculturists and chemists to surpass in properties of early cul- 

 ture and in excellence of quality any other species of Potato in 

 the kingdom. Mr. Parker offers the Potato from beds to save 

 winter storage at 145. per stone of 14 lbs., in canvas bags, to any 

 order. 



Address, Mr. Benjamin Parker, Gardener, Accrington, Lan- 

 cashire, with reference or remittance. Sole Agent, Edward 

 Taylor, Seedsman, Lowerhouse, near Burnley. 



We, the undesigned, confidently recommend Mr. Parker's 

 Raglan Potato to public notice:— John Mercer, F.R.S., Chemist, 

 Oh nshaw; John E. Lightfoot, Chemist, Accrington; Thomas 

 Lightfoot, ditto; John Lightfoot, jun., ditto; Richard Taylor, 

 Gardener to Le Gcndre N. Srarkie, Esq.; Huntroyd; Thomas 

 Birtwell, Gardener to John Taylor, Esq., Morton Hall, near 



Whalle y. 



TXf ATERER and GODFREY respectfully invite the 



* * attention of parties engaged in Planting to their fine 

 Stock of the following HARDY ORNAMENTAL TREES, &c. 



Arancaria imbricata, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 feet high, in quantities, 

 all stocky well grown plants; the larger sizes especially it 

 would be difficult to match. 



Cedrus Deodara, H, 2, 3, 4, and 5 feet, by the thousand; do. a 

 fine lot of larger, 6, 7, and 8 feet; do. some magnificent Trees, 

 10 to 15 feet. These are all in a famous condition for Trans- 

 planting, having been annually removed. 



Cedars of Lebanon, 3, 4, 5, and 6 feet; do. a few splendid Trees, 

 10 and 12 feet. 



Cedars Rio Virginian, 5 to 8 feet. 



Cedars, variegated white, 2, 3, and 4 feet, one of the handsomest 

 variegated plants we know. We had a large stock. It is ex- 

 tensively planted at Elvaston Castle. 



Cryptoroeria japonica, fine plants, 4 to 7 feet. 



Cupressus macrocarpa or Lambertiana, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 feet. 

 Nothing can be handsomer than some of the specimens of this 

 fine hardy plant. 



Juniper, Chinese, 2, 3, 4, and 5 feet; a fine lot of large plants. 



6 to 8 feet. 

 Do. Irish, upright, 3, 4, 5, and 6 feet; do. larger, up to 8 and 10 

 feet. Our stock of the wo last mentioned Junipers we believe 

 f to be quite unequalled, the Irish especially; the larger sizes 



are under perfect columns. 

 Do. recurva, 3, 4, 5, up to 8 feet. 

 Do. hispanica or thurifera, 2, 3, and 4 feet. 

 Abie* Douglasi, 2, 3, and 4 feet. A fine lot of large and very 



handsome plants, 7, 8, 10, and 12 feet. 

 Picea nobilis, several hundreds of nice plants, 1£ to 2 feet, well 



grown, and with good lead. None are grafted. A few taller 



specimens up to 6 feet. - 



Do. Nordmanniana, a large quantity of remarkably handsome 

 plants, 1J, 2, 3, and 4 feet. Nothing can exceed the vigour of 

 these plants, and all from seed. 



Do. Pinsapo, magnificent plants. 4 to 7 feet high, in perfect health. 

 Pinus insignis, 1£ to 3 feet; a few good specimens up to 7 feet. 



„ Lambertiana, from seed, 4, 5, and 6 feet. 



„ Cembra, 3, 4, 5, up to 10 feet. 



„ Montezumse, fine plants, 4 and 5 feet. 



„ macrocarpa, 2 and 3 feet, from seed. 

 Weeping Larch, clean, stems good, heads 7 feet high. 



The foil- wing 10 varieties form a very singular group. They 

 are of dwarf habits; the well known Abies Clanbraziliana may 

 be taken as the type of the whole. We believe our collection to 

 be quite, unique, and, we may add, most interesting.

NOTICE. 



MESSRS. BURGESS and KEY beg respectfully 

 to inform the public, and particularly the noblemen and 

 gentlemen whose orders they were obliged to decline for this 

 season on account of the manufacture not being fully arranged, 

 that the Royal Agricultural Society's First Prize of 30Z. was 

 awarded to them for M'Cormick's Reaper, with their patent 

 screw platform, at the trial at Leigh Court, near Bristol, upon 

 the 29th of August last. Amongst the competing machines were 

 Bell's, by Crosskill : Forbnsh's, exhibited by Mr. Palmer; and 

 Hussey's, with tilting platform, by Wra. Dray & Co. The 

 reports of farmers who have worked the machines during this 

 present harvest, show that the average quantity of Wheat, 

 Barley, and Oats which they cut was from 1J to 1^ acre per hour. 

 Two horses work the machine with ease, and the only attendant 

 required is a man or a hoy to drive. Further particulars and 

 prices sent free on application.— Burgess & Key, 103, Newgate 

 Street ; and 52, Little Britain, London.

 are used by all the eminent gardeners in England, Ireland, and 

 Scotland, and can be purchased of any nurseryman or seedsman 

 in the three kingdoms. Those who may not have used them are 

 respectfully solicited to give them a trial. The Great Exhibition

WATERPROOF PATHS. 

 BARN AND CATTLE SHED FLOORS. 



THOSE who wouM enjoy their Gardens during 

 winter months should construct their walks of PORTLAND 

 CEMENT CONCRETE, which are formed thus:— Screen the 

 gravel of which the path is at present made from the loam w men 

 is mixed with it, and to every part of clean gravel add one ******* 

 river sand. To five parts of Mich equal mixture add one °* Port " 

 land Cement, and incorporate the whole well in the dry state before 

 applying the water. It may then be laid on 2 inches thick. Any 

 labourer can mix and spread it. No rool is required J r e 7°" d ""? 

 spade, and in 48 hours it becomes as hard as a rock. > ^^JJ 

 cannot grow through or upon it, and it resists the action on no 

 severest frost. It is necessary, as water does nor soak througn ih 

 to give a fall from the middle of the path towards the sides.
